Chapter 297 This time the wolf really came
Animals are all spiritual. The firefighters looked at the bloody cat in some astonishment. The flesh and skin of its front paws were flying, and one could even see the white bones inside the blood and flesh. But it seemed as if it felt no pain and was digging at the rubble sadly.
Many people's eyes were filled with tears after seeing this scene.
At this moment, Nian Nian, who was squatting on the ground and scratching the ground madly, suddenly stiffened.
It was a hand, still wearing the bracelet that Li Jingshen had given it. The diamond lock on it had lost its original luster and was covered with blood and ashes.
"Meow..." Niannian nudged the hand with his head, wanting her to touch his head again, but the hand could no longer be lifted.
Niannian licked his nailless fingers, then raised his bony front paws tremblingly to reach for the pendant on his wrist, then grabbed it with his mouth and tried to drag the person out.
But the cat was too weak, and with the injuries all over its body, it had no extra energy. It held the bracelet in its mouth and made helpless "meows", its blue eyes filled with tears.
"There is someone here..." The firefighters hurried over.
Niannian roared, defended himself, and bared his teeth at the firefighters, not allowing them to get close. He was just a cat, not as tall as a human and not very strong. Now he could be crushed to death by someone's foot. He was afraid of the tall and strong firefighters, but what he feared more was losing important people, so he had to protect the people behind him.
The firefighter approached: "Little guy, we have to get the person trapped in there out."
"Meow." Niannian seemed to understand. It could feel that these people had no ill intentions. It looked back at the hand behind it. The fur on its eyes was already wet. It limped to the side and looked carefully.
The firefighters removed the wooden boards and stones that were pressing on top. When they saw the woman trapped underneath, even the fire captain, who had seen many deaths, couldn't help but gasp. Everyone frowned and carried the person out carefully.
The medical staff who followed came forward to check, and after a while, they looked up and shook their heads.
"She's dead..."
"Impossible!" Li Jingshen rushed over and heard this. His face gradually turned pale. His already pale and sickly face now lost all color. "She can't be dead! Get out of the way!"
The firefighters and medical staff were startled by the sudden roar. They looked at each other, understood the message from each other's eyes, and then stepped aside to make room.
A cold wind blew in his face, making people feel scared. Although he was outside and there were sirens honking all around, Li Jingshen felt it was very quiet, so quiet that he could hear his own heartbeat.
He walked over with unsteady steps, and with every step forward, his chest ached a little more, as if a hand had inserted into his heart, twisted it into a ball, and then tore it apart. The sudden severe pain made him unable to help but cover his chest.
He could hypnotize himself into believing that Shen Zhichu was not dead, and that the woman lying dead in the ruins might not be Shen Zhichu.
The woman had extensive burns on her body, and her bare feet had been charred beyond recognition. His gaze slowly moved upwards from her feet, revealing her bloody fingers, the bracelet on the bowl on her right hand, and then the half-disfigured face.
The reality is cruel. His hands and feet were deformed by the fire, so he could deceive himself: if his face was also burned with the same burns and his facial features could not be distinguished, then the person lying there must not be Shen Zhichu.
But now her face was wiped clean, half of it was as pale as paper, and the other half was bloody.
He had seen a form of punishment where a hot iron was pressed against the face, and the half of Shen Zhichu's face looked exactly like that.
At that moment, something unspeakable suddenly collapsed in my heart.
He looked at Shen Zhichu blankly, his heart was heavy, his body and mind were exhausted, his brain was dazed by the stimulation, and tragic things in the world always came without warning.
Everything had been going so smoothly these past few days. Shen Zhichu hadn't cried or made a fuss, and she had even talked to him. It was clear that if she waited another three months, she would be able to recover...
Why not wait for him? Why not wait for him longer?
At this moment, all his self-righteousness disappeared, he became cowardly, and lying in the ruins, burned beyond recognition, was his lover.
Nian Nian watched Li Jingshen approach and stood in front of Shen Zhichu regardless of the pain, baring her teeth and breathing at him, tightly protecting the person behind her with her weak body.
The cat that had once been so attached to him now treated him like an enemy, so angry that it seemed to want to tear him apart. What had he done in the past few months? Why did even Niannian hate him so much?
He was clearly doing this for Shen Zhichu's own good, but why was the ending completely different from what he expected?
Two hours ago, Shen Zhichu suddenly called, Lu Tingchuan brought a "big gift" for Shen Zhichu, the video suddenly played on the big screen, Xia Mingyue's true face, and nine years of being deceived.
Li Jingshen woke up as if from a dream. From the moment he and Shen Zhichu mistook each other for each other, their ending was destined to be tragic. So no matter how he tried to make amends or apologize, it was like rubbing salt into the wound.
Even later, when they slept in each other's arms, kissed, held hands, and did these intimate actions, they were still hurtful.
Not to mention that he personally aborted the baby in Shen Zhichu's belly, indirectly breaking her legs and confining her to a wheelchair. Just like what Shen Zhichu said: A bird cannot survive with broken wings.
"Bang——" Li Jingshen knelt down, and the sharp stone pierced into his knee, causing a dull pain. However, he seemed to feel nothing, without even frowning. He stared blankly at the intact half of Shen Zhichu's face, and then stretched out his hand.
He felt a sharp pain on the back of his hand. It was Niannian who had bitten his hand, making a "woohoo" sound from her mouth, both angry and crying.
Li Jingshen did not struggle. He raised his other hand to grab Shen Zhichu's right hand. The bracelet that Shen Zhichu had been unable to take off his wrist fell off with a light pull from Li Jingshen.
Li Jingshen's eyes followed suit. That bracelet was the first one he bought for Shen Zhichu's birthday in all these years.
The bracelet was custom-made by someone and has a small lock as a decoration. If you want to unlock it, you can only use the key he has.
Shen Zhichu had tried various methods to remove it but had failed. Now, her right hand had been burned so small that the bones were exposed, and the bracelet had fallen off her wrist in the most painful way.
Li Jingshen was stunned, his eyes were empty and lifeless, big tears fell from his eyes, looking at Shen Zhichu sleeping on the ground, he felt suffocated in his chest.
"Is this the 'surprise' you gave me, Chen Zhichu? I thought I was cruel enough, but I didn't expect you to be even crueler. I know you resent me and hate me for locking you up here, but I really just want to compensate you by curing your stomach cancer."
"Chen Zhichu, please don't sleep, okay? Open your eyes and look at me. Don't play such a joke on me. Don't you want to leave? I'll treat your leg and wait for you to recover. If you want to leave, just leave. I will definitely not keep you..."
"Shen Zhichu, I was really wrong..."
No matter what he said, there was no sound around him, as if his ears were deaf. He knelt alone in the cold wind, shivering all over.
This time the wolf is really coming.
